Well done to all the cadets who took part – gaining valuable skills, experience, and qualifications along the way. 💪👏

MONDAY 30th JUNE-BOATING CANCELLED

We hope you are enjoying the warm weather; however it does unfortunately bring challenges over which we have no control.
Currently at Welsh Harp we have a SSE wind and when coupled with the current extremely hot day 33 degrees , it is causing blue/green algae to form in all the areas where we would gain access to the water and most of the westerly operating areas of the Welsh Harp.

Therefore, we have taken the decision to cancel this evenings boating.

We hope to operate as normal later this week when the weather has cooled off and wind direction changes as predicted.
